Such a long way in 40 years! Just 40 years ago, most French people were still waiting for a telephone service. Today, everyone uses digital technology on a daily basis. And this technology was the product of only a half-century of exciting research that brought about a real revolution in society: computers, the Internet and the Web, digital technology – in short the information revolution. Day after day, year after year, INRIA has been a key player in these changes, which underlie today’s society and that of tomorrow. INRIA: 40 years old, but its whole life ahead of it!
From researchers to HR managers and from administrators to communications specialists, experts from every field contribute to production and scientific development. All of INRIA’s partners also play a part: universities and other organizations and companies in France, Europe and around the world.
Putting computer science at the heart of human activities: that is the raison d’être of research at INRIA: health, environment, telecommunications, industry, services, etc. Following are a few projects that put you at the centre of our project-teams and introduce you to our researchers.
In an effort to be as close as possible to its local partners, the Institute is committed to having a nationwide presence and to developing centres of excellence through its eight regional research centres, three of which were created on 1 January, 2008.
